Steve Powell to be Released May 2013

Many people were shocked and horrified to read this article by Salt Lake-area KSL tonight. Even though Steve Powell was supposedly sentenced to 2 1/2 years in jail, they are now shortening his sentence to 338 days from the time his sentencing took effect on June 19 (down from the 913 days it was supposed to be).

I just don’t understand the criminal justice system. “Justice” for Steve’s victims—those two little neighbor girls that he spied on when they thought they were safe in their own home–doesn’t seem to enter the equation.

That’s typical in Washington State. I’m sure there are those who believe he can be “rehabilitated” as well. I would remind them that this man is likely harboring a dark secret and knows far more than he lets on about his daughter-in-law’s murder as well. He wasn’t sentenced for the latter, but it certainly plays into his full profile. This guy thinks other human beings are disposable.
